    Default Brown feathered star

    My second daughter reminded me that I had not made her a bed quilt since she was in college more than 20 years ago. What kind of mother must I be, although she does have numerous lap and wall hanging quilts. She wanted it to be only brown and beige and even sent me several yards of fabric to start with. It finished to be 90 inch square. I paper pieced the majority and hand quilted it. Next week it will be going up to Illinois to help her get through this wicked winter.
